Studying at City Lit can provide students with endless opportunities. Charmaine Watkiss is a London-born artist who completed the Foundation Diploma in Art & Design in 2015. During her time at City Lit, Charmaine explored what was important to her as an artist, experimented with different materials and techniques, and found her natural storytelling ability. She enjoyed the community element and energy at City Lit and appreciated the mix of people from various backgrounds and ages.
The course gave Charmaine a strong grounding in artistic practice and helped her transition from graphic digital design to fine art. Today, Charmaine’s work explores African ancestral traditions and shares powerful narratives through intricate and layered visuals using various materials such as watercolour, wax, ink, and coloured pencil. Charmaine’s work has continued to receive the acclaim it deserves, with her commissioned work on show in 2023’s Liverpool Biennial in June.
The Visual Arts Open Day will take place on 20th May at the City Lit headquarters in Covent Garden. Throughout the day, visitors will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the full range and variety of art and design subjects on offer. A selection of the brilliant tutors will be on hand to answer any questions and guide individuals through the course directory.
